An experienced manager, 62-year old Steve Coppell has been the manager for English clubs such as Crystal Palace and Reading, achieving major success with them. He has also managed clubs such as Manchester City, Bristol City, Brighton & Hove Albion, and Brentford.

Steve Coppell is not new to ISL and has previously been Manager for Kerala Blasters and Jamshedpur FC.
